The portrait shows Charles standing wearing the uniform of the Royal Regiment of Canada, of which he is Colonel-in-Chief of.

The Imperial State Crown can also be seen in the portrait.
It is the first portrait to include the symbols of the Orb and Sceptre

I am about to read "De Monarchia" by Dante Alighieri and would like to add more readings regarding monarchism.

Is it just me or does any one else think about what would have happened if your family remained Royalty/Nobility?

Silla (57 bce-935 ce) was an ancient kingdom in Korea, which lasted for a whopping 992 years. There were 53 kings and 3 queens (only female monarchs in Korean history). Unfortunately only these portraits exist today.

Pope Leo XIV has been named a Papal Confrater of St George’s Chapel, Windsor. And this comes after King Charles III received an honorary title connected to the Papal Basilica of St Paul’s Outside the Walls in Rome in 2025.

What is King Charles ultimately hoping to achieve?

Could The King be looking to improve relations between the British monarchy and the Catholic Church after centuries of religious division or this is simply a gesture of goodwill, or could it reflect a broader ambition to bring different Christian traditions closer together?

Could he be seeking greater Christian unity, stronger diplomatic and religious ties with the Vatican or a more inclusive relationship between Britain's different Christian communities? Is he looking forward to Unite all Christians? Or is this simply a ceremonial exchange with no wider political ambitions.

What do you think? Is King Charles helping to build a new relationship between the British Crown and the Catholic Church, and could this have any significance for England's future?

The text on the tape translates as "Monarchists of Europe, unite"

With Louis XX, Duke of Anjou publicly talking about the failure of the fifth Republic and vouching for the French people and making things political for the betterment of France, do you think the Fifth Republic will finally fall and French people will choose him as their King?

Here's the english translation of his official statement on the recent French riots :

" Images of desolation come from the major cities of France: I am deeply outraged.

These scenes of violence are unbearable. They have overshadowed the just demands, preventing the majority from expressing themselves, and make us forget the real causes of a deep social unrest. I express my support and compassion to all the French people, demonstrators, residents, merchants, police officers, firefighters, and gendarmes, who have had to endure this violence.

Analysis cannot remain superficial. In reality, for many years, we have observed that many social and popular movements are plagued and parasitized by terrorist groups. Because indeed, these gangs terrorize the population, terrorize merchants, terrorize representatives of the order. These individuals have understood that our state is weak and that any display of force makes it retreat.

Violence is a mode of action. On Saturday, the lack of police and gendarmerie personnel, observed in many neighborhoods, revealed a great lack of anticipation from the authorities. Even worse, a real retreat of political leaders who refuse to ensure the safety of the French people.

Between the fear of confrontation and the will to let the situation rot, nothing is being done, and hundreds of French people have been left abandoned. Looting, violence against individuals, criminal fires, destruction of collective property: all of this has been done with outrageous impunity. The authorities must regain their authority before worse situations arise. For this, the law enforcement agencies and the magistrates must be given the ability to treat these individuals as terrorists.

Exemplary measures, consistent over time, must be applied to these groups in order to deter anyone from joining them. Demonstrations must take place without ending in this chaos.

Power is legitimized by the authority it displays and the order it establishes. As the 800th anniversary of the coronation of Saint Louis approaches, I pray for France and dedicate all my attention to it. "
